Bottle, bb 2022. Clear gold with a huge white head that fades only a bit and laces well. Intense citrus and citrus blossom aroma - lemons, bitter oranges - syllabub, light honeyed dough, some spices. Just medium bodied, carbonation is moderate. At first it's just a big bitter blast of citrus, but some luscious and smooth pale malt and some stone fruit emerge after a time and there's a hint of wood at the end. Not all that complicated and with none of the mystery you often get with Fantôme, but very good.

Bottle. Color: Hazy orange golden, frothy white head. Aroma: Fruity, herbal, orange peel, yeast. Taste: Yeast, herbal notes, hints of yellow fruit, pear, peach, bittery orange and lemon peels, malt. A bit grassy. Medium to above medium bitterness, medium sweet. Dry-ish mouthfeel. Very fruity bittery palate. Over medium body, slightly below average carbonation. Very complex, a lot of different flavours going through your mouth. Not everybody's friend, I think and I really had to make up my mind for a rating, but in some way I like it.

Draft. A hazy golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of hops, yeast, straw, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of fruits, malt, and yeast, leading to a bitter finish.

Tap at Fermentoren, Copenhagen. Poured a hazy golden colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is dry yeasty, dry woody hop. The flavour is dry yeasty bitter with a super dry, woody, floral, crisp, alcoholic, dry hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A new and interesting approach to a Saison.
